  Today, at the ESRF, the correction of the orbit position is performed with two independent systems: one to deal with the slow movements and one to correct the motion in a range of up to 200Hz but with a limited number of fast BPMs and steerers. This later will be removed and one unique system will cover the frequency range from DC to 200Hz using all the 224 BPMs and the 96 steerers. Indeed, thanks to the procurement of the Liberas Brilliance and installation of new AC power supplies, it is now possible to access all the Beam positions at a frequency of 10 kHz and to drive a small current in the steerers in a 400Hz bandwidth. The first tests of correction of the beam position have been performed and will be presented. This new orbit correction system is also a powerful diagnostics system: the measurement and survey of the Ring's lattice parameters is possible thanks to the high measurement rate of very high resolution position data. Results of this will also be presented.

  The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) is now fully engaged in a large Upgrade Programme of its infrastructure, beamlines and X ray source. In this context, a first set of 10 insertion device straight sections are being lengthened from five to six metres; a number of them will be operated with canted undulators. The insertion devices are themselves subject to an ambitious development programme to fulfil the scientific requirements. The Radio Frequency system upgrade has started with the replacement of the booster klystron-based transmitter by high power solid state amplifiers, and the development of HOM damped cavities operating at room temperature. A completely new DC-AC orbit stabilization system using 224 BPMs and 96 orbit steerers is currently being commissioned. The upgrade is conducted while keeping, and even improving, routine performance for the user service. In particular the recent installation of new skew quadrupole power supplies allows routine operation with ultra low vertical emittance. This paper reports on the present operation performance of the source, highlighting recent developments and those still to come.
